Restricted Funds

Quick Answer: Restricted Funds

Restricted Funds in Alignmint track unrestricted, temporarily restricted, and permanently restricted balances with proper net asset presentation for boards, grants, and audits—not generic classes or tags. Every transaction can be tagged to a fund so Balance Sheet by Fund and Statement of Activities tell an accurate stewardship story.

Fund accounting requires Plus or above; multi-fund statements and Restricted Gift Utilization require Pro or Enterprise. Configure accounts in Chart of Accounts and release restrictions when donor purposes are satisfied. Net Asset Rollforward bridges year-end balances for CPAs.
